Join Team RNIB

To secure a place with Team RNIB, you simply have to pay a £50 (including VAT) registration fee and pledge to raise £1,000 in sponsorship. If you can fundraise over £1,500, we can refund up to £100 of expenses incurred, or up to £250 if you are able to fundraise over £2,000 (subject to proof of expenditure).

We do not offer packages with accommodation or flights as we think it is important for your supporters to know that one hundred per cent of your sponsorship will come directly to RNIB. This also means that you are free to make your own arrangements and are not tied down to a set package. However, we will be able to supply you with travel and accommodation suggestions.

Sunday 26 September 2010

Join Team RNIB in the city where East Germany meets West for the Real, - Berlin Marathon 2010. An extremely fast and flat course, the route heads through Berlin passing the city's historic and iconic landmarks such as the Reichstag and the Berliner Dom.

Whether you're a beginner or looking to achieve a personal best, this marathon is for you.

Already have a place?

If you have secured a place through the race organisers' ballot, we'd love you to join Team RNIB. You can register to run for us online.

You will have access to all the same benefits as our guaranteed entry runners but you will not have a sponsorship target. We only have a limited amount of guaranteed places available, so we really appreciate any sponsorship money raised by people with their own places.

What would you lose from your life if you lost your sight?

When you lose your sight you lose more than your ability to see.

Every day, almost 100 people in the UK will start to lose their sight. RNIB gives people who have lost their sight vital support to help them find their lives again. Right now RNIB can only reach one in three of the people who need our help most. Join Team RNIB and help us reach them all.

Not for you?

Don't worry! If the Real,- Berlin Marathon isn't for you, why not check out our full events and challenges calendar. We have so many amazing events lined up, from 5kms to marathons, bike rides to overseas adventures and triathlons to parachute jumps.
